A gun control measure I can support

[philip964]

I read an idea on line. It was pretty simple.

Start a petition or propose a law, California would be a good place. Get Television, Video Game, Movie and Streaming producers, actors and directors to pledge that they will not show, portray, or inference a single gun, rifle, pistol, or other 2nd amendment protected arm in any of their future productions.

Would this backfire on me? As Hollywood would all gladly sign up? Calling my bluff?

Obviously a law would be unconstitutional, like most gun grabbing laws already are.

Would stabbing become the new thing on TV? Or would we go back to the fist fights of the Western days? Bombs?

Obviously you know the outcome beforehand! I posted on a whacky article on Fox News Breaking Stories that one of our greatest weapons against Hollywood would be to only rent vids. Don't go to the theater, don't buy the disc!

There are exceptions, of course, and I got my typical bundle of DVDs for Christmas. Kurt Russel is a personal favoite and one of the few Pro-Gun advocates still making movies. I think he's reached an age, and acquired enough wealth that he's not much concerned about being black-balled by fascist liberals, or demo-commies.

Having said that, my favorite from the bundle was his latest Western called Bone Tomahawk. It is definitely a departure and likely the most gruesome Western I've ever seen as far as being realistic. I don't do the worn-out horror genre.
